Combustion Analysis of a Meteorite Debris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this research paper, nature and origins of a meteorite debris identified near village Lehri in district Jhelum, Pakistan have been determined. Total carbon content of a specimen of the meteorite debris is determined using combustion analysis and this ...

Robust Synthesis of Prebiotic Precursors in Drying Reactions of Amino Acids and Keto Acids

open access: yesChemSystemsChem, EarlyView.
Drying conditions drive reactions between amino acids and keto acids, generating a wide variety of small, reactive species, highlighting for the first time the potential significance of drying reactions in proto‐metabolism on early Earth. Condensation‐dehydration reactions are critical to both metabolism and polymerization in extant biology, and their ...

Thermal Alteration of Labile Elements in Carbonaceous Chondrites

open access: yes, 2018
Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are some of the oldest Solar System planetary materials available for study. The CI group has bulk abundances of elements similar to those of the solar photosphere.

Expanding the application of the Eu-oxybarometer to the lherzolitic shergottites and nakhlites: Implications for the oxidation state heterogeneity of the Martian interior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Experimentally rehomogenized melt inclusions from the nakhlite Miller Range 03346 (MIL 03346) and the lherzolitic shergottite Allan Hills 77005 (ALH 77005) have been analyzed for their rare earth element (REE) concentrations in order to characterize the ...

Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is

Formation of nickel–iron meteorites by chemical fluid transport

open access: yesScienceOpen Research, 2016
The deposition of solid material from the gas phase via chemical vapor transport (CVT) is a well-known process of industrial and geochemical relevance. There is strong evidence that this type of thermodynamically driven chemical transport reaction plays ...

Movement of Trace Elements During Residence in the Antarctic Ice: a Laboratory Simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Recent work has determined that differences in the trace element distribution between Antarctic eucrites and non-Antarctic eucrites may be due to weathering during residence in the ice, and samples that demonstrate trace element disturbances do not ...

The morphosedimentary record of glacial to postglacial environmental changes in West Wiyâshâkimî impact crater lake and adjacent areas, northern Québec, Canada

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Crater lakes in core regions of former ice sheets have the potential to preserve long‐term sedimentary archives that are otherwise rare in glaciated landscapes due to pervasive glacial erosion. Lake Wiyâshâkimî, an impact crater lake located in the inner core of the Québec‐Labrador Dome of the Laurentide Ice Sheet, provides a rare example of such a ...

Quantitative FT-IR Analysis for Chondritic Meteorites: Search for C_60 in Meteorites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
Infrared absorption spectra of 9 bulk samples and 3 acid residues of meteorites were obtained in the mid-infrared region (4000 ~ 400 cm^(-1)). From the known composition of meteorites studied, the possible absorption modes were investigated.

Cosmogenic-nuclide production by primary cosmic-ray protons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The production rates of cosmogenic nuclides were calculated for the primary protons in the galactic and solar cosmic rays. At 1 AU, the long-term average fluxes of solar protons usually produce many more atoms of cosmogenic nuclide than the primary ...
